Good morning everyone. It is now 6 51 just about 7 o'clock. It is May 21st
2025. Wow can you remember it was just April. It's already in mid-May and we're going
into a Memorial Day weekend. So that's exciting for all those that travel. I
don't travel anywhere but it gives me an extra day of not having to ship things
right out. So of course I would still be working on moral days like I do on Sundays I work
every day so it's no way to keep pace with orders and so yesterday I was
looking at alternatives and new places to sell stuff so Makari I may add
Parshmark I can do so I may put some us
Open a little store each one of those just in case my eBay store somehow
Gets a suspension or something it shouldn't but it's been really difficult on eBay. It is my number one My Etsy store is just very small
But I may try to in order to really do it yet. You have to sign up for a
But I may try to in order to really do it yet. You have to sign up for a
Migration program and those cost money per month to do
Meaning you take a lot to your eBay listings you can bring them over to mockari
So I may do that just for one month bring some over run let it list of stuff there
No restrictions there whereas Etsy it's really supposed to be 20 years and older but a lot does most of there's lots of things that are newer
but their home made gaming electronics mine would just be parts and that plus I have some
other stuff that's not
gaming that I may put there so we'll see we're gonna broaden my
where I sell stuff I don't overwhelm myself with it, but we were looking at that for a while yesterday. So
Yesterday I put lots of videos up. I
Finally first thing I did is yesterday monos open up my goodie box
For the big three as I call them the name Nintendo GameCube the n64 and the Super Nintendo pretty awesome
Looks like I got a good lot
But as they always say when you get a parts lot, you always gotta assume that everything doesn't work
And then you just make do what you have and that's what I always do
lots of buyers
Expect everything to work even though it's a parts lot and it's really discounted and
Expected to be all in perfect shape and usually it's not. I did see somebody that was bashing kadokis which I'm a
huge fan of kadokis so now once in a while if I see something that seems like it's something I
could reply to I'll subscribe to them and then put a message a comment. Kadokis is awesome I love
kadokis but you have to assume what you're gonna get
When you get them they're gonna be bugged sometimes they're gonna be everything inside
It's just it's just part of the whole fun of getting parts lot you this
YouTuber was picking a part on one system. He got somewhere, but it's like that's not the way you do it
That's not what's about at all
You see you just you look at it and see what you can save
That's the exciting part not why it doesn't what what are the all the things that are wrong with it?
That's not what a part slot is all about at all
but I don't I've been doing it for years and years buying parts lots and
Sometimes you just get some really crazy stuff that are inside of them
But it just is what it is
Alright, so we also did some I had a lot of orders to do yesterday, so we pulled apart
Xbox 360 I
Did a couple live streams with YouTube
We do I had to take another cable out of PSP that that takes a while I didn't do a video for that one and we did some other videos. So we did a lot of stuff yesterday either
On YouTube or with tick-tock tick-tock. I'm just doing live feeds and of course any videos I put on YouTube
I also put on tick-tock
Doesn't really go anywhere. I really haven't gotten any newer
Subscribers there However, I've been really promoting Anyway I really haven't gotten any newer subscribers there.
However I've been really promoting my YouTube.
And then Cheers Norm died, passed away at 76, pretty young.
But yeah I guess he had a good life.
Again it happens to all of us.
It's not shocking to know someone's going to pass away because if you look at yourself
you've got gotta be like well
I only have so much time whatever it is and then hopefully we go on to something else. I hope so
I'll be really bummed if we don't I
would never know but
It's just a means to an end to hopefully something else
I think it's more exciting than anything
Passing on that is this way I feel
Alright, let's see if I find anything else how to mount an iOS image
Jupiter's formally twice its current size and had much stronger magnetic field space is pretty awesome
I
Don't know how far we'll ever get in space, but it's pretty awesome
I don't think we're meant to go out into space this whole point of it, but we
try.
Let's see.
I'm not really seeing anything else here, so let's hop on.
Yeah, so I set up Makari.
I already had a Makari account, but I hadn't listed anything.
And then I started a Parchmark. It's mostly closed, but it does have an electronic section
And then I didn't really see anything else that I could really for what I do
So my Etsy is quiet. Let's check to see if there's any
Activity meaning any sort of other feedbacks
other feedbacks. I haven't seen any in the last few. Usually for every one thing I know for every ten things I sell I might get one feedback. On eBay for every like
30 40 things I sell I may get a feedback and then as you saw with the negative
feedbacks they come to just part of the way it is all right let's
look at RSS feet oh I wanted to get a revenge of the salvage planet because I
really I'm a big fan of the salvage planet so if you ever played the salvage
planet but it's it's in it's a first person but I still liked it anyway Because I can't really play first persons
PS4
Set the set the salvage planet. It's really awesome
It's funny. It's goofy. It's all that stuff
Now the revenge of the set of salvage plan just came out, but it's 50 bucks
Soon all games are gonna be like at least $100 to get
50 bucks soon all games are gonna be like at least $100 to get
But it was 50 bucks so I didn't get it yet I
Do want it though, but again, it's games. They're always be there
They never you know I mean, I'm just I'm replaying now. I started replaying
Sinking City now that there's a remaster with it makes a little bit better to play. I really haven't played much of it
so Games never go away
I'm still cutting down the days till death stranding 2 and then I heard the next game after that for him the director
It's not for another six years
Not in this century. It's pretty funny to think about it. We're already in 2025
So five more years will be out of this century. I'd like to see 2050, but I don't think I'll make it if I make it
into
2040 I'd be happy
2030 some days I feel like Matt if I can make it to 2030 I'll be doing good
2040 would be really hard it I'll be in a completely different
Place then don't know what that'll be yet. It's
most it's
Very scary and at the same time. It's very exciting to think about it
But I don't know what I'll be in even five years from now
I'll still be trying to do my YouTube so in my podcast wherever I may end up
So we had one download yesterday Manola Germany colon
Cola and
Quartar so in the last seven days. I've had at least one download so it's pretty cool very exciting
I always welcome anybody that gets my message in a bottle over the Internet Ocean
Wherever it may land it's always fun and exciting
alright so let's go on to YouTube what we were
building up I had put a big promotion amount on
the negative feedback so
that really should be cruising along
of course feedbacks make a, I mean, promotions.
And then I did a few of the ones I did yesterday.
And overall, I've been adding $5 feedback, promotions.
So yeah, so we're at 39,587 subscribers.
So we've gone significantly.
But I promoted significantly.
That's the only reason this happens. So we've gone significantly, but I promoted significantly.
That's the only reason this happens.
1.8k for my two vulgar, dirty feedbacks.
760 for my other dirty feedback.
Me and girlfriend are playing, just ran into, let's see what this game is.
Me and my girlfriend are playing. I don't think I've ever had a girlfriend
that I could actually play. This into the same issue all information I could find is
saving you. Delete your save files and restart if it happens. Yeah, no, 8 hours. oh yeah oh so this is the guy with dark pictures devil and me in
the maze you get stuck yeah I was so bummed about that does it you get amazing
and then there's a place we have to put a lever on to another thing this is in the dark pictures devil in me
It's a glitch in the game it's a bug
That's a game breaking bug that never addressed
Eight hours in so he played it for eight hours into the game real fun game the devil in me I like all the uh... dark and dodgy games they're really really fun
but you get suck in the nothing you can do
so i made a
look what video about it and somebody else
experiences in things
city in the girlfriend plant war playing are playing just ran the same issue
that's it
i like taking a spot
by and i've since the lead all those games now. I've got a new round of games and
I'm waiting for death training to
pretty exciting um so
Although we keep as I say all the time we're at thirty nine thousand five hundred eighty eight subscribers
We're very close to hitting my mark of
40,000 subscribers however
And I always say that as well. There's always a whole however with me my revenue is still at
$19.55 so the amount of
Subscribers we I say probably too much, but never has any bearing on
Your watch time which went?
eighty two point nine K views and the hours are down
587 so basically people subscribe, and then that's it and they go away, but they're just
Hooked down to as an extra subscriber. You don't have active subscribers that are actually
Going through any of your stuff
And no matter what I try to create content it doesn't work
but again you can only do you that's what I say this is it
is me so it's a pretty much tried to do some other stuff
I did my project journeyman for a while at night I'll do that in the fall
we'll set that up again and then I was doing some
stop motion We'll start that up again, and then I was doing some
Stop motion little videos perfect for fun, but we're gonna do some things outside. I just need to I'm still working on cleaning up
But we showed a few videos. You should see the size of the amount of stuff that's in that gazebo now. It's
insane
All right, so let's go wait to eBay I was just hold my breath here now
before I go to eBay because it's either gonna ruin my day or or not looks like I
have one order or not I have some response.
Okay, so let's see.
We've closed your buyer's return.
So my other return got closed.
That was the one with the spindles.
He said they didn't work and buyers will open a return, say they don't work, but they never
return them.
I think buyers assume that if you open a return on me, that I'm just going to give you your
money back, but I don't
Not not normally
It has to come back if you're gonna if you're gonna say something doesn't work for me I want to get it back
Because it cuz I want to see what what happened I'm not just gonna give you the money back in a knocker. I just take your word for it
So what happens is most times three quarters or even more than that?
Things that buyers say don't work when I get them back
They worked as I ship them mean that something that they were doing on their end made them not work
So I never go by anybody's word, especially if it's you're doing it yourself
Never go by anybody's word especially if it's you're doing it yourself
So we've had a good a couple good feedbacks perfect. Thank you fast shipping item is described. Thank you So we got a couple
Feedbacks to bury the very two very not so nice feedbacks
but
Usually it'll go that way
So I'm just not taking anything this morning I
Have another one to pull out we're gonna test so today we're going to test the big three
which is the Nintendo GameCube the the N64 and we're going to test the Super Nintendo. That one just needs a switch I believe so that's
exciting and then I also have a Wii U so I just had some sort of an offer so We'll look at that.
Just declining all offers this morning.
I really could use some sales.
So we'll go through those and we'll pull them.
Eventually I'll get some of those things listed.
Definitely the N64.
It's an 08 motherboard, so that's awesome.
That's a bonus.
I don't know if that's the problem, but doesn't matter I still am working or not. Of course, I would list it as working or not
I bet you the GameCube
So I had no video so but maybe the lens assembly is the more and more important part
Got lots of motherboards
That don't work and then it's and then the super Nintendo. I think the switch is broken
So that might be I get lucky there, but probably not though
We'll see
All right, so we'll see what we got going on here
I did start a sale for a few days.
We're going into Memorial Day weekend, so we'll see what we come up with over the weekend.
That's about it though. Pretty quiet. over the weekend.
That's about it though. Pretty quiet.
Again, a couple good feedbacks since the debacle
of my...
I've had one, two, three, four, five good feedbacks since that one.
C64 exact bottom case. Perfect. Thank you.
That was hard to sell.'s a really really long anything
that's long c64 which is a Commodore it's just the bottom case so that's cool
and those were covers cases all those kinds of things they saw lots of that's
my justice important if not more important than actually what's inside of
the system so it's never really about what's inside of it. It doesn't need to work.
Okay, that's why I say when you get a bunch of different parts, parts slots,
you just make do. So I know how to make do with stuff.
Other people are just getting broken systems thinking they can fix them and most of them you can't.
They're not meant to be fixed or they can't be fixed as a whole. But luckily I break everything down so it doesn't really affect me but that's not how other people work but it's the
way you're supposed to to well when you get parts lot you're supposed to be able
to you should have both you should be either be trying to sell them whole or
if you can then break it down and sell the parts too do both I don't often sell
whole systems I haven't done a long time once in a blue moon I
Considered these three maybe selling them whole put a new top cover on it and sell it for a bunch, but I don't know
Haven't quite decided yet
So let's see what my morning is so that's where we're at this morning a little bit shorter today
I could take a breath. I think I'm gonna take're at this morning. A little bit shorter today. I can take a breath.
I think I'm going to take a breath this morning
and just go with what I got and then go from there.
And we'll go get some sales later on.
Then I'll take a day off.
There have been pretty much sales all the time.
So I can use the sales always because as I always say,
I live pretty much by each eBay sales.
And of course course you get negative
feedback that doesn't help your selling account at all. But you know it's just going to be
part of what it is. And as always I always want to talk about the negative feedbacks,
bring them up front, share them with the world as best I can because there's two sides to
the story. Oh and there are ever two sides to every story
And some of it is my fault I can admit it, but also there's the other side, too
So we'll just leave it at that
see
so I got
So we're gonna go right into
Now that I can take a breath. I've got all my buddies done this morning
Of course the first thing I do my guinea pigs need a
Lot of I have to completely clean them out every morning and every night before I go to bed
They take a lot of work. They're really fun though my good little buddies my birds need to be cleaned out
I look at my little hamster my buddy rocket. He don't need much attention
Just changes food and water and he's good to go. He hides most of the time. He gets a lot
He's got a lot of tubes though. Those are my three little caretaking things that I have that are very important for me.
They help me keep routine, they give me that sense of caring, all of that good stuff when
you're kind of on your own.
So I really dig that, having them.
I've had a lot of hamsters.
They don't really last too long
Like any pigs. I just lost one recently my buddy Brownie
And then I came across treasure that we have now from my other buddy spot that's in there. It sounds pretty fun
So today we'll probably do it's gonna be not raining today, but we're gonna go into a rain pattern
Tomorrow but God bless anybody out in the Midwest man. They just getting wrecked out there. Oh
I just kids just like towns that are just gone and I always said there's gonna be places in the world in the country We just can't live anymore
Unless you build an underground city or something
I'd be wrong you're a real shot by a lot of that land and see if you can build underneath
Build a city underneath. I mean, there's so many movies that have underground cities. Why can't we have one?
The Midwest would be a perfect place for it, right?
Build some tunnels and some it'd be cool. I think it's a great idea
We have the technology to do it. I mean there's underground bunkers and around the world and the country too
I mean there's underground bunkers and around the world and the country too
Just just pick a nice big lot land that you know it's hurricane and tornado alley and just
Build down and just keep building around it and going down
But it would have to be down enough for that even if a tornado were to go over your
Access or wherever you're going into it. It's not going to damage it But even if it does it wouldn't really affect it. So that's what I would do if I had a lot of money I'd find the cheapest land in the the
hardest hit part of
Toyo ality that's nobody wanted to land because it just keeps getting hit and then I would just dig
I would start with a couple little shelters and then I just keep building add more shelters and more and just build a city be awesome
Right I think so
That's my that's my idea of the day. I always got ideas
All right, so you guys have a good afternoon
And I will talk to you tomorrow, and we'll do some we'll test some game systems in a little bit all right all right bye
